So the 3 recent buyers of r8s have all sold to buy something lighter?
You always wind in your line to post on a Blaser thread.
I like justifying them to the non converted.
Its fun. At the end of the day who really cares.
We all know what we know and that's about it.
I admit to being very skeptical about them when I first seen one.
It was given to me to use for a season on meat and I had one ordered within a week.
I will never look back. I have shot countless animals that I would have missed out on with a turnbolt.
Speed of the action and SAFELY hunting with a chambered round were a plus.

I had the opportunity to spend a day hunting with a mates R8. By the end of the day I was ready to throw it down a bank! Cool engineering but way too heavy. I now own an R93 with Christensen Carbon stock, fluted attache barrel, Delta suppressor topped with March 2.5-25x42 scope. Neat light weight rig... just waiting on one of those Neopod bipods to complete the light weight blaser package. Might invest in a carbon wrapped barrel in the future.
Only have need of one center fire caliber at the moment Abe but things may change one day.
